yeah i guess it was the catalyst to get the roof done and the few bits and peices that were annoying me, so it was good in a way, but still would have preferred it to not have happened at all :(

OK.... here is the finished product

Roof: Before

Roof: After

Cowl Panel Before:

Cowl Panel After:

Bonnet Before:

Bonnet After:

So there it is.... i think the colour match was not 100% :shock: :cry: .... but is a marked improvment over the damage obviously :oops:

May look down the track at redoing it do get the colour perfect, but this is how it stays for the time being.

Would love a bit of Bling trophie wise, but, if no trophies happen and only one person comes up and says hey i love your mini....... that will be enough satisfaction for me.... 8)
